[Music] A thread of great tracks that occupy the whole side of an album

Side 2 of Moving Waves

 

[PTC Gull]

So this is weird. Currently using an iPad/Safari to read NSC. Can see every link to the music EXCEPT any post from HWT!
On the pc and the laptop I can see everything. Is this an iOS issue?

1975 I was there.

Technically it's a 38-minute single rather than an album side, but they were a Brighton band, so I'm going for Clear Skin by Insides.

Unsurprisingly there's no YouTube upload of that, as it was a fairly limited release (my copy must be somewhere in the attic!), so instead here are a few tracks from their best album, Euphoria:

(Great opening lyric btw; "I hate lovers, I hate the way they go to the bathroom in shifts after they've ****ed")

Two slightly distorted guitars!

With apologies to the OP, and I agree on Topographic Oceans, but this is an awesome side of LP music poppickers.
I would propose that from 8.30 in, some of the best rock music written.

Same here but could be a blessing in disguise

[Is it PotG?]

I Need Your Lovin'
Just Wait and See
Casting My Spell
Keys to my Heart
Why Did Your Love Leave Me Baby?
Shimmy Like My Sister Kate
I Can't Do Without You Now!
I'm Blue
Some Other Guy
She's Allright
Nobody But You
Last Night

….for me, it HAS to be Best of the Beatles.

Does The Ninth Wave, b side of Hounds of Love by Kate Bush count? I'd like to think so.

Straight away I thought of this album because side 2 is so good, and side 1 is so shit.

Kicking off with this masterpiece



Personally I will flinch at any Yes. I remember Peel playing a side of Topographical Oceans then saying 'nah, not for me' and never playing them again.

Below is John Peel's all time favorite. Maybe he had a short attention span.

Note that Thick as Brick has a second track on each side, This wonderment doesn't

Oooh great album. But I'm going to rise (or maybe fall) to Triggaaar-esque levels of pedantry and point out that technically neither side has a whole track as 'The Hare who lost his Spectacles' end sides one and starts side two.

Should really be another thread, 'Albums with one great side and one poor side' I would include Mickey Jupp's Juppanese. Side 1 which has Rockpile supporting Mickey is far superior to side 2
